log in issues

EA should definitely give some kinda warning on when their servers will be up and running. Unlike other competent videogame companies like Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo.

I mean Sony gives us at least a heads up when PSN is down for maintenance.

What's EA excuse for their incompetence? None really, as far I am concerned.

I have the "cannot connect to server" error, which I presume is akin to what everyone else is getting. At least I was way ahead and got Death a day and a half ago. Now I'm just grinding for obols.

Uh, I really don't think this was planned in any sense of the word. It's obvious they are having some major technical issues. It looks like a major cascade failure in their authentication system.

I still remember when this game's authentication was handled by Origin. Origin may even have been hosting the gaming servers as well. Not sure about that, anyone else know?

I can login to my main town, but can't log in to my feeder town.

None of this alters the fact that EA's online system and servers are absolutely terrible and a joke imo compared to other videogame companies like Activision, Capcom, Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony.

It's all well and good EA saying to reset the password to access, it that doesn't help when you get a message saying the EA servers can't be reached before even getting to a page for logging in.

I cannot login either or reset my password, but homer is still notifying me when jobs are done. That doesn't make much sense at all since it says I'm logged out.

I keep getting these and it keeps giving me false hope

I have gone from the EA is unavailable message to the Bart screen. Not that it makes any difference still can't access the game. :s

Me too
This really irritates me as I've missed 2 rounds of collecting trick or treaters (will miss bonuts), and 2 rounds of kem farming..so the total cost of this be over 20 donuts!!!
